As all lines change length over time, we have built in a way to
correct the flying characteristics quickly and easily. Adjust-
ments after heavy use over years should be done to keep the
products performance and ensure a long-term use of the kite.
13.01 Profile Moment Adjuster (PMA‘s)
Note:
It is important to check the kite first as it is shown in
the bar manual in the trim check section. Changing the PMAs
should only be done by a professional when the bar, lines, mi-
xer, bridle and sail have been checked.
The PMA‘s are small knotted lines with two settings which are
stitched into the aerofoil on the top and bottom. Therbeby the
aerofoil can be directly adjusted as illustrated below.
Standard form (Neutural position)
If you shorten a PMA on the top of the wing, the aerofoil becomes
slower and more stable.

12.03 Repairing the Cloth
In case you get a small tear (e.g. through contact with a sharp
object) we have included a repair kit with your kite. The area
that needs to be repaired must be clean, dry and grease-free.
Temporary repairs are possible with spinnaker repair tape, but
the tear should be taped from the inside of the kite. It is recom-
mended that you round off the edges of the repair tape. A spe-
cial binding agent (silicone sealing compound) for the X-Light
Cloth is available through Flysurfer sales partners or directly at
FLYSURFER. A repair manual is included with the binding agent.
There is the possibility to have a professional repair done by us.
We can exchange whole parts of the canopy, so that there will be
no trace of the damage.
Tip:
When a tear is close to a seam (less than 5cm), we recom-
mend using sewing to repair the damaged area.
